Shoal Creek Shopping Cart Corral 2024 Recap

August 9, 2024  | By Shoal Creek Conservancy

We are in awe of what SCC volunteers, Austin’s Watershed Protection Department, and Austin Resource Recovery accomplished during the second annual Shoal Creek Shopping Cart Corral.

On Saturday, July 27th, 77 volunteers, WPD staff, and ARR staff spread out over 8 locations along Shoal Creek and in just two hours collectively removed 47 shopping carts, 116 bags of litter, and lots of large bulky items like tires, a car engine, a lawn mower, a wheelbarrow and more!

Visit SCC’s Facebook page to view more event photos, find news coverage before the event at Fox7 and KXAN and after the event at KVUE, KXAN, and Hoodline, then read about the inaugural Shopping Cart Corral in 2023.

Huge thank you to all the volunteers, our cohosts, WPD and ARR, and our presenting sponsor, H-E-B, for their support!
